Former Market Basket CEO Arthur T. Demoulas spoke out for the first time since the rallies started Friday, urging fired workers to be reinstated."The success of Market Basket is the result of two things: a business model that works and the execution of it by a dedicated and impassioned team of associates," Demoulas said in a statement. "Their fierce loyalty to the company and its customers has always been deeply valued. In the final analysis, this is not about me. It is about the people who have proven their dedication over many years and should not have lost their jobs because of it. I urge that they be reinstated in the best interest of the company and our customers."
